Introduction

The Georgia Guidestones is a monument of standing stones near Elberton, Georgia.

Built in 1980, the main structure is composed of six granite elements - one central pillar, four stone
panels that radiate out from the center, and a capstone.

The capstone has engravings on each of its sides in four different ancient languages (Babylonian
Cuneiform, Classical Greek, Sanskrit, and Egyptian Hieroglyphs). The engraved message translates
as: "Let these be guidestones to an Age of Reason".

The four stone panels are engraved on both sides, and each side contains text in one of eight modern
languages (English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian) asserting ten
guidelines. The actual text of the guidelines is given later in this material

The Georgia Guidestones

In June 1979, an unknown person with the pseudonym "R. C. Christian" hired Elberton Granite
Finishing Company to build the structure. The monument was completed and was unveiled in March
1980, in front of 100 people.

However, another account specifies Saturday, 22 March 1980 as the unveiling day, and reports that
400 people were in attendance.

The 22nd of March was the 1st Saturday following the vernal equinox, which was on Thursday, 20th
march 1980.

Could one of these people be the mysterious Mr. R.C, Christian?

In their booklet, the Elberton Granite Finishing Company described Mr R. C. Christian as an "elegantly
dressed, grey-haired, middle-aged man".

They went on to say that he delivered the monument's specifications in meters, and was not deterred
by the high estimate for the cost of creating the Guidestones.

So, Who was R. C. Christian?

It was an ordinary Friday afternoon in 1979 when he first appeared at the
Elberton Granite Finishing Company. The well-dressed stranger told the owner
that he wanted to build a granite monument of a scale and complexity that was
unheard of even in a major hub of the granite industry. The owner dismissed the
stranger as a practical joker and sent him to a local banker, Wyatt Martin, to see
if the man could actually fund such a massive project. To the shock and surprise
of the locals, Mr. Christian made good on his intention to build the monument,
and the Georgia Guidestones were unveiled to the world on the spring equinox of
1980.

Christian told Martin that he represented a group of individuals who had planned
this project for more than 20 years, and that each one of the group was a loyal
American who believed in God and country. He said the group of sponsors
wished to remain anonymous and went on to say that his real name was not
Robert C. Christian as he had introduced himself, but this was simply a name
chosen because of his Christian faith."

"The group feels by having our identity remain secret, it will not distract from the
monument and its meaning, "said Christian. "The message, to be inscribed on the
stones, is to all mankind and is non-sectarian, nor nationalistic, nor in any sense
political. The stones must speak for themselves to all who take note and should
appeal to believers and non-believers, wherever, and at all times, "he continued.

The true identity of Mr. Christian and his anonymous group is still shrouded in
mystery. Adapted from: ( 1ittp://www.guidestones.us/who-was-r-c-christian/ )

In his book, Common Sense Renewed, which was written over five years after the monument was
erected, R. C. Christian takes full responsibility as "the originator of the Georgia Guidestones and the
sole author of its inscriptions."

Additionally, Christian mentioned that one function of the monument was to "inspire" other
enterprising individuals to build twelve further Guidestones; however, this has never manifested.

The Georgia Guidestones

What was the motivation behind the monument?

One thought is that the monument was erected by R. C. Christian in recognition of Thomas Paine and
the "occult philosophy" that he espoused.

Another thought is that the monument was erected by R. C. Christian in homage to Christian
Rosenkruez, who founded the mystical Rosicrucian order. Christian Rosenkruez was once known as
"Frater C.R.C.", and when the two names are combined, "R. C. Christian" is derived.

However, all this is pure speculation without any prima facia evidence.

Inscriptions

The Capstone Inscriptions

On the sides of the capstone, "Let These Be Guidestones To An Age of Reason" is respectively
inscribed (north side clockwise) in Babylonian Cuneiform, Classical Greek, Sanskrit, and Egyptian
Hieroglyphics.

The Main Panel Inscriptions

A message consisting of a set of ten guidelines or principles is engraved on the Georgia Guidestones.
The principles are repeated in in eight different languages (English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew,
Arabic, Chinese, and Russian) - one language on each face of the four large upright panels.

Inscription Languages

Moving Clockwise around the monument from due North, the inscription languages are: English,
Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, and Russian. All panels contain the same text.

The Explanatory Tablet

To the West of the main structure this is an additional granite tablet that has been set level with the
ground.

The Explanatory Tablet is located to the west of the main structure

The Explanatory Tablet

The tablet identifies the structure parts and the various languages used, and also enumerates various
facts and figures about size, weight, astronomical features, the date of the center cluster's erection,
and the project's sponsors.

The explanatory tablet also speaks of a time capsule buried thereunder; however, the fields on the
stone reserved for recording the dates on which the capsule was "buried" and is to be "opened" are
missing; consequently, it is unclear whether a time capsule was ever actually interred.

Each side of the explanatory tablet is perpendicular to one of the cardinal directions, and is so
orientated that the northern edge is the top of the inscription.

At the center of the each edge of the tablet is a small circle, each containing a letter representing the
appropriate cardinal direction:

(N),

(W) (E)

(S)

At the top center of the explanatory tablet the following text is written:

THE GEORGIA GUIDESTONES

CENTER CLUSTER ERECTED MARCH 22, 1980

Immediately below this is the outline of a square, reflecting the capstone, inside which is written:

LET THESE BE
GUIDESTONES

TO AN AGE

OF REASON

Around the edges of the square are written the names of four ancient languages, one per edge.
Starting from the top and proceeding clockwise, they are:

BABYLONIAN CUNEIFORM, CLASSICAL GREEK,
SANSKRIT, and EGYPTIAN HIEROGLYPHICS.

The names of eight modern languages are inscribed along the long edges of the projecting rectangles,
one per edge.

Starting from due north and moving clockwise around so that the upper edge of the northeast
rectangle is listed first, they are: ENGLISH, SPANISH, SWAHILI, HINDI, HEBREW,
ARABIC, MANDARIN and RUSSIAN.

Additional Information

At the bottom center of the explanatory tablet is the following text:

Astronomical Details

The four outer stones are oriented to mark the limits of the 18.6 year lunar declination cycle.

The center column has a hole through which the North Star can be seen regardless of time, as well as
a slot that is aligned with the Sun's solstices and equinoxes.

A hole was drilled in the Center Stone (picture above)
to allow the North Star to be visualized, through it, at any time.

An eye-level, oblique hole is drilled from the South to the North side of the center Gnomon stone, so
that the North Star is always visible, symbolizing constancy and orientation with the forces of nature.

Center Stone (North Star) Hole

A slot is cut in the middle of the gnomon stone to form a window which aligns with the positions of the
rising sun at the Summer and Winter Solstices and at the Equinox, so that the noon sun shines to
indicate noon on a curved line.

The slot cut in the middle of the gnomon stone

The cap stone includes a calendar of sorts, where sunlight beams through a 7/8 inch hole at noon,
and shines on the South face of the center stone. As the sun makes its travel cycle, the spot beamed
through the hole can tell the day of the year at noon each day. Allowances are made because of
variations between standard time and sun time to set the beam of sunlight at an equation of time.

Capstone (Sun) Hole

The site was chosen because it commands a view to the East and to the West and is within the range
of the Summer and Winter sunrises and sunsets. The stones are oriented in those directions.

A 7/8" hole in the capstone allows a ray of sun to pass through at noon each day, shining a beam of
light on the center stone indicating the day of the year

The Story

The Georgia Guidestones are located on a hilltop in Elbert County, Georgia, approximately 90 miles
(145 kilometers) east of Atlanta, 45 miles (72 km) from Athens (precise distance is 44.3322 miles), GA
and 9 miles (15 kilometers) north of the center of Elberton. The stones are standing on a rise a short
distance to the east of Georgia Highway 77 (Hartwell Highway), and are visible from that road. Small
signs beside the highway indicate the turnoff for the Guidestones, which is identified by a street sign
as "Guidestones Rd."

Joe H. Fendley, Sr., Elberton Granite Finishing Company Inc.'s President, said it all began late on a
Friday afternoon in June 1979 when a well-dressed and articulate man walked into his offices in

Elberton and wanted to know the cost of building a large monument to conservation. He identified
himself as "Mr. Christian." He told Fendley that he represented a small group of loyal Americans living
outside Georgia who wished to remain anonymous forever, and that he chose the name "Christian"
because he was a Christian. He inquired where Fendley banked and Joe put him in touch with both
local banks. Wyatt C. Martin, President of the Granite City Bank, was selected by "Mr. Christian" to be
the intermediary for the mysterious project.

Mr. Christian explained to Mr. Martin that although his name was a pseudonym with symbolic
meaning, he and the group he represented were very serious about erecting these guidestones for,
"the conservation of the world and to herald the coming age of reason. Should there be a holocaust in
the civilized world the group wished that the guidestones to be one of the most enduring things to help
humanity start anew.

In his book, Common Sense Renewed, R. C. Christian expresses deep concerns that a U.S. -Soviet
nuclear war will cause the downfall of civilization. "We have turned the world into an atomic
tinderbox, Tie said, and to people of the time, it must have seemed like an unchangeable state of
world affairs. The practical uses of the monument, from language translation to marking the seasons
to following the stars, would all be useful to the survivors of such a holocaust.

Christian also said that after completion he hoped other conservation-minded groups would erect
even more stones in an outer ring and carry the monuments message in more languages. He told
Martin that he wanted the monument erected in a remote area away from the main tourist centers.
The gentleman also said that Georgia was selected because of the availability of excellent granite,
generally mild climate, and the fact that his great-grandmother was a native Georgian.

Martin suggested to Christian that Elbert County was the ideal location for the memorial; and it was
agreed, provided a suitable location could be found. He returned later and he and Martin inspected
sites. Christian, selected a five-acre plot on the farm of contractor Wayne Mullenix. This was also the
highest point in Elbert County.

A few weeks later, Martin contacted Joe Fendley and told him that funds for the project were in an
escrow account and to start work immediately. Martin promised that when the project was completed,
he would deliver all files on the affair to the anonymous sponsors and that the secret would never be
known.

He said that Christian had told him that the sponsors had planned the monument for years and that
the ten guides for the conservation of mankind and the earth were carefully worded as a moralistic
appeal to all peoples regardless of nationality, religion, or politics.

The project was one of the most challenging ever for Fendley's quarrying and monument
manufacturing company - partly because of the magnitude of the materials and partly because of the
exacting specifications from the client - Feindley said that the specifications were so precise that they
had to be compiled by experts on stone as well as on construction.

The main cluster was completed on 22 March 1980, using granite quarried from nearby Elberton.

NEWS

THE GEORGIA GUIDESTONES:
TOURIST ATTRACTION OR CULT MESSAGE?

Gary Jones

Date Unknown

http://www.elberton.com/articles/2005/05/18/news/news03.txt

-()--

A mention of the 25th Anniversary of Elbert County's Georgia Guidestones in the local newspaper and
the inclusion of the local monolith in a National Geographic guide, and suddenly there is a surge of
interest in the mysterious landmark.

Interest? Is that good?

Good if that interest comes from the many callers to the local Chamber of Commerce, asking for
directions to the Guidestones and for any other information available. Good if that interest is
generated from an Appalachia map published by National Geographic identifying the guidestones as
"a sort of modern Stonehenge."

Not so good if you have an author who insists that the guidestones need to be destroyed.

"The Guidestones should be smashed into a million pieces, and then the rubble used for a
construction project," says John Conner (a pseudonym), who is coming out with a book this year
called The Resistance Manifesto.

Conner says that when his book is published, he is going to come to Elberton from his base in
California and demand that the Guidestones be torn down.

According to Conner (whose website can be accessed at www.TheResistanceManifesto.com), the
Guidestones have "10 Satanic commandments engraved into the sides" and were constructed to
forward the cause of a world-wide cult.

Conner's book says that the mysterious "R. C. Christian" is actually a member of a 500-year-old sect
called the Order of the Rose and that there is no mystery as to the message engraved in the stones.
Christian, the mystery man who approached local businessmen Joe Fendley and Wyatt Martin,
funded the project back in 1979 and has not been heard from since.

"This is not a 'normal' monument to promote environmentalism or an 'Age of Reason' as the stones
suggest," says Conner, "...the Guidestones have a deep Satanic origin and message ... through a little
research a few things become apparent, and the New World Order is written all over them."

While Conner is discouraging continued attention to the Elbert County site, National Geographic
recently included the Guidestones in its map of Appalachia sites to visit. One of about 20 locations in
North Georgia listed on the map, the Guidestones are mentioned and Elberton itself is identified as
the "self-proclaimed 'Granite Capital of the World.'"

The National Geographic map is called an "Appalachia Geotourism MapGuide" and was funded by a
grant from the Appalachian Regional Commission.

According to National Geographic, geotourism is "Tourism that sustains or enhances the geographical
character of a place-its environment, culture, aesthetics, heritage, and the well-being of its residents."

To see the map and the information gathered for the map by National Geographic, go online to
www.nationalgeographic.com/appalachia.

According to Phyllis Brooks of the Elbert County Chamber of Commerce, interest in the Guidestones
over the past 25 years has been steady.

"We keep a brochure that we give to people when they ask about the Guidestones," says Brooks.

More questions, more exposure, more visitors.

It seems there will always be interest in the Guidestones.
